Primary Medical Services Contract Reviews: a contract compliance monitoring resource guide

21 April 2010

The purpose of this resource guide is to assist PCTs both in terms of increasing their contract monitoring capability and in terms of addressing capacity issues.   The resource guide focuses solely on the contract compliance element of overall contract reviews; the monitoring of practices to ensure that there is compliance with the contractual and statutory obligations of their primary medical contracts. 

The resource guide has been co-produced by West Midlands PCT primary care colleagues, NHS West Midlands and NHS PCC.

To assist PCTs in undertaking contract compliance monitoring activities, a number of West Midlands PCTs (from the working group) have agreed to share their documentation relating to contract reviews and contract compliance monitoring.
